                                       2




next preceding date on which public trading of the Common Stock occurred, as

Board from time to time. To the extent allowed by applicable law, the Board by
resolution may authorize an officer or officers to grant Awards (other than
stock Awards) to other officers and employees of the Company and its Affiliates,
and, to the extent of such authorization, such officer or officers shall be the
Administrator. To the extent allowed by applicable law, the Administrator may
delegate administrative functions to certain committees and individuals as
appropriate for the effective administration of the 2004 Plan.

      (b) POWERS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR. The Administrator shall have all the
powers vested in it by the terms of the 2004 Plan, such powers to include
authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to grant Awards under the 2004
Plan, prescribe Award Agreements evidencing and establishing the terms of such
Awards and establish programs for granting Awards. The Administrator shall have
full power and authority to take all other actions necessary to carry out the
purpose and intent of the 2004 Plan, including, without limitation, the
authority to:

            (i) determine the eligible persons to whom, and the time or times at
which, Awards may be granted;

            (ii) determine the types of Awards to be granted;

            (iii) determine the number of shares to be covered by or used for
reference purposes for each Award;

            (iv) impose such terms, limitations, restrictions and conditions
upon any such Award as the Administrator shall deem appropriate;

            (v) modify, amend, extend or renew outstanding Awards, or accept the
surrender of outstanding Awards and substitute new Awards (provided, however,
that except as provided in Sections 6 or 7(c) of the 2004 Plan, any modification
that would materially adversely affect any outstanding Award shall not be made
without the consent of the holder);

            (vi) accelerate or otherwise change the time in which an Award may
be exercised or becomes payable and to waive or accelerate the lapse, in whole
or in part, of any restriction or condition with respect to such Award,
including, without limitation, any restriction or condition with respect to the
vesting or exercisability of an Award following termination of any Grantee's
employment or other relationship with the Company; provided, however, that no
such waiver or acceleration of lapse restrictions shall be made with respect to
a performance-based stock Award granted to an executive officer of the Company
if such waiver or acceleration is inconsistent with Code section 162(m);

            (vii) establish objectives and conditions, if any, for earning
Awards and determining whether Awards will be paid after the end of a
performance period; and

                                       3




            (viii) for any purpose, including, without limitation, qualifying
for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws or otherwise complying with
the regulatory requirements of local or foreign jurisdictions, to establish
sub-plans as the Administrator may determine to be necessary in order to
implement and administer the 2004 Plan or a sub-plan in foreign countries, and
to take any and all other actions it deems necessary or advisable for the proper
administration of the 2004 Plan or a sub-plan, including, without limitation,
amending, modifying, administering or terminating such sub-plans as the
Administrator may determine to be necessary and prescribing, amending and
rescinding rules and regulations relating to such sub-plans.

The Administrator shall have full power and authority, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to administer, construe and interpret the 2004 Plan and Award
agreements and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of the 2004 Plan, Award Agreements and all other documents
relevant to the 2004 Plan and Awards issued thereunder, and to adopt and
interpret such rules, regulations, agreements, guidelines and instruments for
the administration of the 2004 Plan.

      (c) NON-UNIFORM DETERMINATIONS. The Administrator's determinations under
the 2004 Plan (including, without limitation, determinations of the persons to
receive Awards, the form, amount and timing of such Awards, the terms and
provisions of such Awards and the Award Agreements evidencing such Awards) need
not be uniform and may be made by the Administrator selectively among persons
who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards, whether or not such persons are
similarly situated.

      (d) LIMITED LIABILITY. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no member
of the Administrator shall be liable for any action taken or decision made in
good faith relating to all their activities under the 2004 Plan.

      (e) INDEMNIFICATION. To the maximum extent permitted by law and by the
Company's charter and bylaws, the members of the Administrator shall be
indemnified by the Company for all their activities under the 2004 Plan.

      (f) EFFECT OF ADMINISTRATOR'S DECISION. All actions taken, and decisions
and determinations made, by the Administrator on all matters relating to the
2004 Plan pursuant to the powers vested in it hereunder shall be in the
Administrator's sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and
binding on all parties concerned, including the Company, its stockholders, any
Grantee and any other employee (including any employee-director) or consultant
of the Company, and their respective successors in interest.

4.    SHARES AVAILABLE; MAXIMUM AWARDS.

The shares of Common Stock subject to the 2004 Plan shall be unissued shares or
reacquired shares, bought on the open market or otherwise. Subject to adjustment
as provided in Section 7(c), the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
issued pursuant to Awards shall not exceed the sum of: (i) 1,500,000 shares of
Common Stock; and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock, if any: (a)
available for future grant under the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan") as
of the date of the Company's 2004 annual meeting of stockholders; (b) underlying
grants under the 1996 Plan that are forfeited, canceled, expire, become
unexercisable or settled in cash without delivery of shares of Common Stock; (c)
withheld to pay the exercise price or to satisfy withholding taxes in connection
with any grant under the 1996 Plan; or (d) tendered, either actually or through
attestation, to pay the exercise price of any Award under the 2004 Plan or any
grant under the 1996 Plan or to satisfy withholding taxes in connection with any
such Award or grant. The Company shall reserve such number of shares of Common
Stock for Awards.

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7(c): (i) the maximum number of
shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to Awards intended to be
"incentive stock options" within the meaning of Code section 422 shall not
exceed 9,600,000; and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may
be issued pursuant to any combination of Awards that may be granted during any
one calendar year to any one individual is 1,000,000. Such per-individual limit
shall not be adjusted to effect a

                                       4




restoration of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the related Award is
terminated, surrendered or canceled.

Any shares of Common Stock covered by an Award (or portion of an Award) that are
forfeited or canceled, become unexercisable, expire or are settled in cash,
including the settlement of withholding taxes or payment of the exercise price
by withholding shares of Common Stock, and any shares of Common Stock that are
forfeited back to the Company after delivery because of the failure to meet an
Award contingency or condition in connection with any Award, shall be deemed to
have not been delivered for purposes of determining the number of shares
available for issuance under the 2004 Plan and shall be available for further
Awards.

5.    PARTICIPATION.

Participation in the 2004 Plan: (i) shall be open to all employees (including
employee-directors), officers and other individuals rendering substantial
services as a consultant or independent contractor to the Company or any
Affiliate, as may be selected by the Administrator from time to time; and (ii)
shall not be open to non-employee directors. The Administrator may also grant
Awards to individuals in connection with hiring, retention or otherwise, prior
to the date the individual first performs services for the Company or an
Affiliate, provided that such Awards shall not become vested or exercisable
prior to the date the individual first commences performance of such services.

6.    AWARDS.

The Administrator, in its sole discretion, establishes the terms of all Awards
granted under the 2004 Plan. Awards may be granted individually or in tandem
with other types of Awards, concurrently with or without respect to outstanding
Awards. All Awards are subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Award
Agreement. The Administrator may permit or require a Grantee to defer receipt of
the payment of cash or the delivery of Common Stock that would otherwise be due
to such Grantee by virtue of the exercise of, payment of, or lapse or waiver of
restrictions respecting, any Award. If any such payment deferral is required or
permitted, the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, establish rules and
procedures for such payment deferrals.

      (a) STOCK OPTIONS. The Administrator may from time to time grant to
eligible participants Awards of ISOs or NQSOs; provided, however, that Awards of
ISOs shall be limited to employees of the Company or of any current or hereafter
existing "parent corporation" or "subsidiary corporation" of the Company as
defined in Code sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, and any other individuals
who are eligible to receive ISOs under Code section 422. Stock options intended
to qualify as ISOs under Code section 422 must have an exercise price at least
equal to Fair Market Value as of the date of grant, but NQSOs may be granted
with an exercise price less than Fair Market Value. No stock option shall be an
ISO unless so designated by the Administrator at the time of grant or in the
Award Agreement evidencing such stock option. To the extent the aggregate Fair
Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of Common Stock with respect to
which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar
year exceeds the statutory limit, the ISOs or portions thereof which exceed such
limit (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as
NQSOs.

      (b) STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. The Administrator may from time to time
grant to eligible participants Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights ("SAR"). A
SAR entitles the Grantee to receive, subject to the provisions of the 2004 Plan
and the Award Agreement, a payment having an aggregate value equal to the
product of (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value on the exercise date of
one share of Common Stock over (B) the base price per share specified in the
Award Agreement, times (ii) the number of shares specified by the SAR, or
portion thereof, which is exercised. If upon settlement of the exercise of a SAR
a Grantee is to receive a portion of such payment in shares of Common Stock, the
number of shares shall be determined by dividing such portion by the Fair Market
Value of a share of Common Stock on the exercise date. No fractional shares
shall be used for such payment and the Administrator shall determine whether
cash shall be given in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional
shares shall be eliminated.

                                       5




      (c) STOCK AWARDS.

            (i) The Administrator may from time to time grant unrestricted or
restricted stock Awards to eligible participants in such amounts, on such terms
and conditions, and for such consideration, including no consideration or such
minimum consideration as may be required by law, as it shall determine. A stock
Award may be denominated in Common Stock or other securities, stock-equivalent
units (commonly referred to as phantom stock), securities or debentures
convertible into Common Stock, or any combination of the foregoing, and may be
paid in Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or in a combination of Common
Stock or other securities and cash, all as determined in the sole discretion of
the Administrator.

            (ii) The Administrator may grant stock Awards in a manner
constituting "qualified performance-based compensation" within the meaning of
Code section 162(m). The grant of, or lapse of restrictions with respect to,
such performance-based stock awards shall be based upon one or more Performance
Measures and objective performance targets to be attained relative to those
Performance Measures, all as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator,
in its sole discretion, may make adjustments in the method of calculating
attainment of Performance Measures and/or performance targets and/or modify the
performance results upon which Awards are based (in each such case, due to:
changes in tax laws, generally accepted accounting principles and/or accounting
policies; restatement of prior period financial results; or any other matter
which is unusual, non-recurring or creates unintended results that obtain or
arise from events not anticipated when the Performance Measures and performance
targets were established; so long as, in each case, all compensation awarded
hereunder remains "qualified performance-based compensation" under Code section
162(m).

7.    OTHER GOVERNING PROVISIONS.

      (a) AWARD TERMS. All Awards granted shall be evidenced by an Award
Agreement (which need not be the same for each Grantee), approved by the
Administrator which shall incorporate the following express terms and conditions
and such other terms and conditions as are set forth in the 2004 Plan, and such
other terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Administrator in its
sole and absolute discretion which are not inconsistent with the terms of the
2004 Plan:

            (i) Unless terminated earlier, the term of any Award shall be
specified in the Award Agreement but shall be no greater than ten (10) years
from the date of grant;

            (ii) The Administrator shall have the discretion to accelerate
vesting upon termination of employment of a Grantee or upon such other event as
it deems appropriate;

            (iii) No Award or interest therein may be pledged, hypothecated,
encumbered or otherwise made subject to execution, attachment or similar
process, and no Award or interest therein shall be assignable or transferable by
the holder otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or
to a beneficiary upon the death of a Grantee, and an Award shall be exercisable
during the lifetime of the holder only by the Grantee or by his or her guardian
or legal representative, except that an Award (other than an ISO) may be
transferred to one or more transferees during the lifetime of the Grantee, and
may be exercised by such transferee in accordance with the terms of such Award,
but only if and to the extent such transfers are permitted by the Administrator
pursuant to the express terms of the Award Agreement. A transferee or other
person claiming any rights under the 2004 Plan from or through any Grantee shall
be subject to all terms and conditions of the 2004 Plan and any Award Agreement
applicable, except as otherwise determined by the Administrator; and

            (iv) Awards may be granted to eligible participants for no
consideration or such minimum consideration as may be required by law, as the
Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion. As determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrator, Award Agreements may permit payment by cash,
Common Stock, any combination of cash and Common Stock or any other form of
legal consideration consistent with applicable law, including the execution and
delivery of a full recourse promissory note to the Company by Grantees who are
neither executive officers nor directors of the Company.

                                       6




      (b) TAX LIABILITY AND WITHHOLDING. Grantees and holders of Awards shall
pay to the Company, in a manner satisfactory to the Administrator, any taxes
(including any foreign and social taxes) required to be withheld in respect of
Awards no later than the date of the event creating the tax liability. The
Company may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations
from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Grantee or holder of an Award.
In the event that payment to the Company of such tax obligations is made in
shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the
applicable date for such purposes and shall not exceed in amount the minimum
statutory tax withholding obligation.

      (c) ADJUSTMENTS FOR CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER EVENTS.

            (i) STOCK DIVIDEND, STOCK SPLIT AND REVERSE STOCK SPLIT. In the
event of a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting,
the Common Stock, then (A) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject
to the 2004 Plan pursuant to Section 4, the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock available for issuance as ISOs pursuant to Section 4 and the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted during any one calendar
year to any Grantee pursuant to Section 4 and (B) the number of shares covered
by and the exercise price and other terms of outstanding Awards, shall, without
further action of the Board, be adjusted to reflect such event. The
Administrator may make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment
of fractional shares and fractional cents that arise with respect to outstanding
Awards as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split.

            (ii) NON-CHANGE OF CONTROL TRANSACTIONS. Except with respect to the
transactions set forth in Section 7(c)(i), in the event of any change affecting
the Common Stock, the Company or its capitalization, by reason of a spin-off,
split-up, dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or share exchange,
other than any such change that is part of a transaction resulting in a Change
of Control of the Company, the Administrator, in its discretion and without the
consent of the holders of Awards, may make: (A) appropriate adjustments to the
maximum number and kind of shares reserved for issuance or with respect to which
Awards may be granted under the 2004 Plan, in the aggregate and with respect to
any individual during any one calendar year of the Company, as provided in
Section 4 of the 2004 Plan; and (B) any adjustments in outstanding Awards,
including, without limitation, modifying the number, kind and price of
securities subject to Awards.

            (iii) CHANGE OF CONTROL TRANSACTIONS. In the event of any
transaction resulting in a Change of Control of the Company:

                  (A) Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator at the
time of award or by amendment with the Grantee's consent, all Awards not vested
on or prior to the effective time of any such Change of Control shall vest
immediately prior to such effective time.

                  (B) Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in the
Award Agreement or at the time of the Change of Control, outstanding stock
options and other Awards that are payable in or convertible into Common Stock
under the 2004 Plan will terminate upon the effective time of such Change of
Control unless provision is made in connection with the transaction for the
continuation or assumption of such Awards by, or for the substitution of the
equivalent awards of, the surviving or successor entity or a parent thereof. The
outstanding stock options and other Awards that will terminate upon the
effective time of the Change of Control shall become fully vested immediately
before the effective time of the Change of Control, and, the holders of stock
options and other Awards under the 2004 Plan will be permitted, immediately
before the Change of Control, to exercise or convert all portions of such stock
options or other Awards under the 2004 Plan that are then exercisable or
convertible, or which become exercisable or convertible, upon or prior to the
effective time of the Change of Control; provided, however, that no such Award
termination shall occur unless a Grantee shall have been given five (5) business
days, following prior written notice, to exercise such Grantee's outstanding
vested Awards at the effective time of the Change of Control, or at the
discretion of the Administrator to receive cash in an amount per share of Common
Stock subject to such Award equal to the amount by which the Award (determined
on a fully

                                       7




diluted basis and taking into account the exercise price, as determined by the
Administrator) in the Change of Control exceeds the per share exercise price of
such Award.

                  (C) The Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion,
may make such additional provisions for the assumption of outstanding Awards, or
the substitution for outstanding Awards of new incentive Awards covering the
stock of a successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with
appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices so as to
prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.

            (iv) UNUSUAL OR NONRECURRING EVENTS. The Administrator is authorized
to make, in its discretion and without the consent of holders of Awards,
adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards
in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the
financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in
applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, whenever the
Administrator determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to
prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended
to be made available under the 2004 Plan.

      (d) SUBSTITUTION OF AWARDS IN MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS. Awards may be
granted under the 2004 Plan from time to time in substitution for awards held by
employees, officers, consultants or directors of entities who become or are
about to become employees (including employee-directors), officers or
consultants of the Company or an Affiliate as the result of a merger or
consolidation of the employing entity with the Company or an Affiliate, or the
acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of the assets or stock of the
employing entity. The terms and conditions of any substitute Awards so granted
may vary from the terms and conditions set forth herein to the extent that the
Administrator deems appropriate at the time of grant to conform the substitute
Awards to the provisions of the awards for which they are substituted.

      (e) TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND MODIFICATION. The Board may terminate,
amend or modify the 2004 Plan or any portion thereof at any time. Except as
otherwise determined by the Board, termination of the 2004 Plan shall not affect
the Administrator's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with
respect to Awards granted under the 2004 Plan prior to the date of such
termination.

      (f) NON-GUARANTEE OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE. Nothing in the 2004 Plan or in
any Award Agreement shall confer any right on an individual to continue in the
service of the Company or shall interfere in any way with the right of the
Company to terminate such service at any time, with or without cause or notice,
and whether or not such termination results in: (i) the failure of any Award to
vest; (ii) the forfeiture of any unvested or vested portion of any Award; and/or
(iii) any other adverse effect on the Grantee's interests under the 2004 Plan.

      (g) COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS; LISTING AND REGISTRATION. If at any
time the Administrator determines that the delivery of Common Stock under the
2004 Plan is or may be unlawful under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction,
or Federal, state or foreign securities laws, the right to exercise an Award or
receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award shall be suspended until the
Administrator determines that such delivery is lawful. The Company shall have no
obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the Common Stock under
Federal, state or foreign laws.

      (h) NO TRUST OR FUND CREATED. Neither the 2004 Plan nor any Award shall
create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a
fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Grantee or any other person. To
the extent that any Grantee or other person acquires a right to receive payments
from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the
right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

      (i) GOVERNING LAW. The validity, construction and effect of the 2004 Plan,
Award Agreements, any rules, regulations, determinations or decisions made by
the Administrator relating to the 2004 Plan or Award Agreements and the rights
of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest therein or
thereunder, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with applicable
federal laws and the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its
conflict of laws principles.
